Wow. That's a nice little board. Essentially an ESP32 with added Zigbee support and a dual core cpu.

While it's technically a dual-core system-on-chip, the two cores aren't a matched pair. The first core is based on Alibaba's T-Head C906 64-bit RISC-V core, running at up to 480MHz. The second core, meanwhile, is a T-Head E907 32-bit RISC-V core running at 320MHz.
From a development perspective... this seriously complicates things. Yeah, just whack another core in there, any core... that'll make it better!

Fab all the cores?

I guess in embedded world, this isn't too bad. There's plenty of designs out there that have a cpu here, a cpu there, a microcontroller on the other side...
